Responding to posts directed to pre-ops
My opinion on this is that as a pre op myself, the way she words things is what upsets people. It does NOT have to be written the way she writes it. I think it makes DSer's look snotty and like they are know it alls. And I do know that a lot of DSer's are great people. And the DS is a great surgery. Why does her wording have to be like that? I think more people would want to listen if it was written in a more mature manner. Like I said, this is my opinion and when I read those posts it made me want to leave that post without reading it completely. I agree with the facts and the reason she did post but it could be written in a different way and she could have gotten her point across.
Kari, as a pre op you are somehow drawn to keep posting on the DS info threads. I've also noticed that you post from two different accounts ??? Either you doth protest too much or you need a hobby to keep you busy till surgery. If your mind is truly made up, you need to do yourself a favor and stop being angry with people who've had a different surgery :) This info is for people who are pre-op that have not heard of the DS, are researching the DS further or who are unsure of the surgery they have signed up for.
I am getting the feeling that one of these options apply to you.
But if getting angry and making assumptions about other makes you feel better about your surgery choice, by all means......

I honestly don't know what is going on with my account. It said that I am having a VBG or something and that I've been a member since 2009. Not sure what is going on there. And yes I read all the posts and will always do so! I was stating my opinion as to why peole get upset with certain posts! That's what the OP was about! Don't worry about what I write. If you don't like it, don't read it and block me. I have that option as well :) I am not angry with people who have had a different surgery, I get irritate with how people talk. Again, my problem! This is my personal opinion as to why some of these wars start! Thanks!
